Integer Lattice Gas Automata for Computational
J. Treurniet, Neil R. S. Simons, Greg E. Bridges · 2000
Integer lattice gas automata (ILGA) are combined with the transmission-line matrix (TLM) method to yield a new electromagnetic-field computation algorithm using very low-preci- sion integer variables. Lattice gas automata can be evaluated using look-up tables on special-purpose hardware and do not require floating-point arithmetic. In this paper, we present a TLM moti- vated ILGA with emphasis placed on algorithms that demonstrate minimal dissipation.
